Gathering of Civil War Eagles

June tbd, 2010
www.civilwargatheringofeagles.com
The Gathering of Civil War Eagles is a one-of-a-kind journey back to one of the watershed events in American history – The War Between the States. Gathering of Civil War Eagles is not an academic seminar or a battlefield reenactment. Guests of Gathering of Civil War Eagles will be able to meet and talk with the very personas that made the critical decisions and led the opposing armies. You will hear the Generals discuss and debate battles and tactics, and politicians such as Lincoln and Davis debate secession and the sectional differences that led to War. There will also be award-winning authors to discuss and sign their books, period musical performances throughout the weekend, and chances to sip tea and see ladies’ fashions from the Civil War era. |
